~J3AI\IIS.—Thereare more persons visiting tho bath house, at tiie Terre Haute House, than ever before. Tho unpleasantness of the gas that has heretofore kept persons away, has been entirely removed by the insertion of an inner pipe, 800 feet long, which separates both tho gas and oil from the water, and it now comes into the tubs perfectly clear, and free from gas.

in the small space we have,

vn '--r 'to givc '-he reader an idea of the extent of tho machine shops of the Torre Haute tt Indianapolis Railroad, trusting that the brief sketch will be read with inteaest by nil. By way of introduction we would say that this road has been in operation over 21 years, and that the reports from year to year from the various offices and departments of the road, show that it has been managed perhaps the most successfully of any railroad in the West, and, indeed, it is a question as to whether there is in the

United States one that has continuously been kept in such good order, or that has given better satisfaction to the traveling public. Whenever the slightest repairs have been required, they have been promptly made, and it is by giving especial attention to the condition of the road, that it has gained such popularity with travelers.

OFFICERS.

The oiliccrs of the road are as follows President—W. 11. Mo Keen. Secretary—R. A. Morris. Treasurer—M. W. Williams. Superintendent—C. R. Peddle. Directors—Chauncev Rose, Denias Doming, W. I\. Edwards, A McGregor, W. R. McKeen, E. Nippert, R. A. Morris. -MACHINE SFTOPS.

Having thus prefaced this article, we invite the reader to take a look Avith us through the machine shops of this road, which are located at Torre Haute, and which are quite extensive indeed. The entire mechanical department of the road is under the general supervision of Mr. Clias. R. Peddle, who has a large corps of able and efficient assistants at the head of each department. The machine shops proper are under the direct charge and control of Mr. Wm. Riley, who is the Master Machinist, and it is to him we are under obligations especially, for a full explanation of the Avorkings in the various departments, and the information we have gathered regarding these extensive shops.

The machine shop was the llrst entered. This building is f0 by 100 feet, and is two stories high. On the first floor the finishing of all the iron or steel parts of an engine is done, except the boiler, and it is there the engine is put together and prepared for running. Mr. Wm. Kirtz, an experienced machinist, is the foreman in this depariment. He has constantly under his supervision 45 hands, to whom are assigned the work of finishing the various parts of an engine, according to their adaption to the different classes of work. It would be impossible to go into a detailed statement ol the machinery employed to perfect the work of an engine, but whoever visits this extensive shop, will not fail to notice a large hydraulic press, used for straightening axles, and testing car springs and, having a pressure of 1G tons also, an enormous lathe, used exclusively for tho purpose of turning and dressing driving wheels, either new or old. Connected with this department also is the wheel shop, where by the powerful machinery employed, the car wheels are forced on the axle by a pressure of 40 tons. Passing to the second story of the building, it is found to bo divided into an office for the master machinist, a pattern room (where all the patterns not in use are carelully stored, and in such order that they may be readily found when needed,) a pattern shop, where two hands are constantly employed in making patterns, a copper and tinsmith shop, where two more hands are constantly employed, principally in making and repairing copper flues for locomotives a store room, where supplies for tho engines, etc., are kept, and a general wareroom, in which are stored ropes, block and tackle, etc., to be used in bridge building, or in case of a wreck on the road.

ENGINE Roo:.r.

In the rear of the machine shop will be found the engine room, which is 20 by 50 where an engine of estimated 40 horse power is employed. To this is attached a powerful steam pump, used in case of fire, and lor washing the inside of boilers. It is also used for the purpose of filling cisterns, and in case of fire, will force water through the 1,000 feet of hose kept at hand all the time, to be prepared for any emergency in case the destroying element should break out. Under the same roof but divided from the engine room by a partition wall, may bo found a wide and deep well, capable of supplying all the cisters about the premises with water in case it is needed and still in another room hard by, tho oil for the use of tho machinery, engines, etc., is carefully stored.

BRASS l'OX'NDRV.

In the brass foundry two hands are employed. The principal work done in this department is the manufacture of "tender" and "truck" boxes, which arc cast and dressed up there, but all the brass work used in the building of any machinery made at the shops is turned out of this one, all ready for fitting up and for use. A good deal of work is done in the way of making castings from Babbitt metal also, which are used in telegraph offices, ttc.

OLD ROUND HOUSE.

Passing into tho "tld round house," its dimensions are found to be 100 by 1G0 feet. This is under tho supervision, or foremanship, of Air. Charles Butler, and 20 men are employed under his direction. It con tains a turn-table, of the diameter of 44 feet, three tubs for water, with which locomotives are supplied, each having a ca pacity of 9,000 gallons. This was formerly thc round house proper for the road, but it is now the place in which the fitting up and repairing of engines and boilers is done, which do not havo to be taken to pieces. Locomotives requiring thorough repairs are also taken apart there, and the parts transferred to the machine shop, where they are worked over and turned out, as capable of service as if new.

NEW ROUND HOUSE.

The new round house, which has, so far, been erected within the last IS months, is, by far, the most substantial of any of the buildings. Seventeen thirtieths of the building have been completed, and, when finished, its diameter will be 236 feet, and circumference 740 feet. Ac the present time it contains 17 stalls for engines, but, when finished, will contain 30. Twentvtwo bands are employed, 13 of whom are called "wipers," whose duty it is to clean the engines, wipe, oil, and brighten the polished parts, when the locomotives come off the road. This house coutains a turntable 60 feet in diameter, capable of taking on the largest sized locomotive and tender. Mr. Butler is also foreman of this department, and has the general supervision of both the old and new. 'j

A BIG TUR.

For tho purpose of supplying engines regularly in use on the road, near, and in the rear of the round house, is being built a large tub 20 feet in diameter and 14% feet in height, which will hold 35,000 gallons of water. It is located on a traok leading

-t

from the wood and coal sheds to tho round house. BOILER SHOP.

Iii the boiler shop, Mr. Benjamin Riley is foreman, and has working under his superintendence nine hands, who do all the work appertaining to the manufacture of boilers. The fire boxes, which are of the best steel, are inadu in that shop from the plates, two thicknesses being used, 5-16 and 7-10 of an inch. There may be found all the machinery necessary for making boilers from the flat iron. The iron is bent, the rivet holes made, and the boilers completed, ready for use, in that shop. Of the work a vast amount is don?. during the year, and the boilers are all subjected to a satisfactory test before the engines are put on the road. This shop is 50 by 75 feet, and contains an engine of sufficient power to do -all the work that can be (lone by macliiner

J! LACK SMITH SHOP.

This building is 50 Ty 87 feet, and contains 1.'? forges or fires, as they are called, at which 26 mechanics work, there being two to each fire. This shop is under the formanship of Mr. Francis Smith. It is there the work in wrought iron and steel for tho engines, bridges etc., is done. The shop is supplied with all the machinery necessary for turning out work in the best style, and with the greatest dispatch. A monster shearer with which iron is cut to any size required, and a powerful hammer, operated by steam, with a force of GOO pounds weight, are used in the blacksmith shop.

IRON STORE HOUSE.

In the rear of tho blacksmith shop may be found the iron store house. The building is 30 by feet, and at least §150,000 worth of iron is used annually in the making and repairing of the machinery 'necessary for the use of the road.

OLD CAR SHOP.

The next place visited was what is called the "old car shop," of ivliich Mr. Herman Kirms is the foreman. Its dimensions are 50 by 200 feet, and one story high. The machinery in this, is driven by the engine attached to the machine shop. Tvventv-seven mechanics are employed each day in the old and new shops, in shaping and preparing the wood work for engines, flat cars, freight cars, coaches &c. This shop is supplied with saws, morticing machines, &c., and a large planing machine capable of planing timber 40 feet in length and besides, all machinery necessary to do all the heavy or rough work in wood. The wood work for the cars, coaches Ac., is prepared in that shop, and then transferred to the

NEW CAR SHOP,

which is also under the superintendence of Air. Herman Kirms. It is 50 by 150, and one story high. The work prepared in the old, is put together in the new shop by experienced and skillful workmen. At the present time tho mechanics are putting the finishing touches on a splendid newcoach for the road. As this is a finishing shop, but little machinery is used or required.

TAINT SHOT'.

The paint shop 30 by 150 feet, is in charge of Pierre Adolplie Solomon, who has most excellent taste as a designer, and is in every way competent for tho position he holds. Tho painting done by him, and under his direction is greatly admired by all who have examined it. The work having boon completed in the car shop, is transferred to the paint shop, where the painting and upholstering are done, and the finishing touches put on the coaches. Besides Mr. Solomon, 9 painters are employed in this department. In a building separate form this finishing shop, the paints are prepared in the most careful manner. Wo havo not space to speak at greater length of this, but suffice it to say that no work is allowed to go on the road until it has been subjected to tho most scrutinizing inspection by competent judges.

WOOD AND COAL SHEDS.

The wood and coal sheds are located in the rear of all the shops, the former being 24 by 200, and the latter 24 by 131 feet. The coal shed has a capacity of holding in cars, ready for use by the engines, 72,000 pounds of coal. Both are built on a slight curve, and will in a short time be so arranged that engines may be supplied with fuel in a moment almost.

CAR HOUSE.

under the charge of Samuel Cliff, car inspector, Avhose duty it is to inspect all cars before they are alloAved to make a trip over the road, retaining all Avhich are not considered perfectly safe. This is likeAvise a neAvbuilding, and has recently been completed.

FREIGHT HOUSE.

Few cities in the West can boast a larger or bettor freight house than that of the Terro Haute and Indianapolis Railroad. Its dimensions are 75 by 400 feet. All except through freight is handled there. Nine men are ei^ployed for that purpose. In tho south end of the house,

CAUTION.—The sun sets at precisely 7:45 P. M., and it is at least SO minutes after that before it is entirely dark. Young men had better nult their watches, and see that the 30 minfites have elapsed, before they put an arm around their girl when out for a ride on Sunday evening, as on that evening there are many pedestrians abroad, and they sometimes got weary and rest on fences, and it is just like them to notice such little things. Does your arm hurt you much to-day? It is mighty nice we have tried it, but we always waited until it was fairly dark.

We charge nothing for our information or I

advice.

RES'. JOHN B. L. SOUEE, Professor of Ancient Languages, in the P.lackburn University, at Cariinville, 111., called on us this morning. Sir. Soule was one of the editors of tho first- Daily Hxpi'es-s, of this .city, and afterward, with his brother Moses Soule, established the Daily on a firm basis. As an editor he stood deservedly high, for his writings were always characterized by much scholarship, and a classic beauty of style. He will remain in the city several days visiting his many friends, and in his endeavors to find the old land marks, that have been almost entirely swept away b3' the spirit of improvement which has so characterized Terre Haute during his absence.

PROF. BLAZO.—Pence's Hall was pretty well filled on Saturday night with ladies and gentlemen, who attended for the purpose of listening to a lecture from Prof. Blazo. The Doctor made a vigorous attack on all mercurial preparations used as medicine, and in quite a forcible style demonstrated the evil effects produced from the use of that drug. He touched on the habits of men and women which were calculated to produce disease, and gave some excellent advice relative to the preservation of health. Prof. Blazo is an earnest and forcible speaker and entertains his audience from the beginning to the end of his lecture. Wo believe that all were well pleased with his remarks on Saturday night.

ON Saturday night, about 12 o'clock, a Scotchman, a stranger in the city, was handled quite roughly by a citizen of Terre Haute, who had been indulging too freely in the use of mean whisky. We are informed that a fight between the parties referred to took place opposite the jail, and that tho Scotchman was badly beaten, his antagonist using a stone, with which he inflicted several ugly gashes on the stranger's head. But for the timely arrival of a police oflcer, the affair might have proved more serious than it did. Wo are informed that there was a good deal of "looseness" on Saturday night. The De ocratic Convention was held Saturday ternoon.

LAST Saturday, a negro man by the name of John AVallar, aged 108 years, died in the suburbs of this city. Ho was thrice sold in the territory now comprising the State of Indiana, before it was a State the last time being taken to North Carolina, where he remained for a while, but afterwards worked his way back to the Indiana Territory, and participated in the battle of Tippecanoe. He was tho oldest man known in this section of the country.

OPERA HOUSE.—Last Saturday evening an accident occurred at the opera house of which we made mention in Saturday evening's paper. It appears that the statement Avas greatly exagerated as to the damage done to the building. The information was gained from one of the carpenters who wras working on the bent that fell first, and of course was considered reliable by us. Wo cheerfully give place to the following card of Air. Hook, contractor for tho opera house, Avhich Avill set the matter right before the people Editor Terre Haute Gazette
